Like, has anyone looked at what the motive would be if it were foul play? Like, who is the intended target? We
00:00:07
keep talking about Jennifer cuz she's the one who had time to have a story around her life, but maybe it was the
00:00:13
kids. It's totally possible. And like you said, I mean, the wild part is they're
00:00:19
so young that they would have absolutely no memory of where they came from other
00:00:24
than like what they were told by someone. Like the problem we have here is I don't think anyone has enough
00:00:30
information to say what the motive is because I don't think you can talk motive without knowing what really
00:00:37
happened, right? But I will say I mean there's been some online chatter like one of the things I came across that I
00:00:44
found really interesting is this kind of fringe theory that maybe this serial killer guy named John Robinson could
00:00:52
have something to do with Jennifer's disappearance. So, according to something I read on Investigation
00:00:56
Discovery, John was a serial killer that operated in the Midwest, but specifically the Kansas and Missouri
00:01:03
areas around the time of Jennifer's disappearance. And I mean, listen, I would love to know if John was a patron
00:01:09
of baby dolls, but like everything I found about him online is that like he tried to maintain this facade of this
00:01:16
super upstanding citizen. I mean, he was a Sunday school teacher. Doesn't mean he
00:01:20
didn't, but like doesn't fit the like persona he was trying to put off. But he ultimately got arrested on a
00:01:27
sexual battery complaint in June of 2000. This is just a month after Jennifer and the girls vanished. And
00:01:33
from there, detective discovered human remains on his property.
